Description :
The AA. develop a precisely dated isotope record (δO 18, δC 13) of the last deglaciation from a stalagmite recovered from the Klamath Mountains, southwestern Oregon. Since the climate of the region is strongly influenced by the Pacific Ocean, this record is significant in providing one of the few precisely dated terrestrial record of Northeast Pacific climate variability during the last deglaciation.
